They hang out in areas that represent traumatic experiences for Cheryl. Whenever you find one, its usually crying and curled up--and, until you approach it, it seems completely absorbed in itself and unaware of Harry. When it does finally notice you, it flees as if its ashamed.

I think the places and scenes where you discover the larval stalkers symbolize episodes in her life that caused Cheryl great suffering, and that she constantly dwells and obsesses over.

They kinda remind me of SH the movie in a sense, of Dark Alessa, always in places which were bad for alessa. But yeah, The above is correct, If i see one during the game i know im on the right track

I love the Silent Hill Series. The Games: Homecoming, Origins, and Shattered Memories, did nothing wrong whatsoever, they were developed well, and did things different. Just because they were not by Team Silent doesn't mean that they're bad games. I believe in this series. I Believe that one day, we can have a game that will make all Silent Hill fans Happy. I believe that Silent Hill 8 can achieve this. Team Silent may be gone, but their Series isn't. Instead... it's here, it's alive.

While what's been discussed so far about Cheryl's shades are probably true, I also think that each one running away from Harry not only shows how ashamed about her father finding out might be, but also an attempt to keep him from finding his way to her.

Remember, if all works out, Harry will find her and she will have to face the fact her vision of her father isn't true.

It seems that it was the last time she saw her parents together at least somewhat happily. Dunno what voice messages you get on various playthroughs, but I got 2 versions, don't quite remember the second one, but on the first one Harry and Dahlia were remembering the old time when they were in love, then Cheryl dropped in and saying that she is sorry that she ruined Harry and Dahlia's "happy time".

God I want to play the game again! Sadly, I don't have it at the moment

Edit: Although I am wondering what happened in the forest? Is she traumatised because of the party that you hear about through the voicemails?

I didn't go crazy and try to listen to all the voicemails, but I do remember a party in the woods which I believe Cheryl was at. She sounded sick, and wanted to leave. I can't remember for sure.

And those shadow Cheryls?... sub-conscious reminders o the storyteller of the truth They're, what I would suggest, trying to keep Harry from adancing so that in the end, Cheryl won't have to deal with the truth.
